- NZ’s lovable version of Beaujolais
- Te Mata’s styles the Gamay Noir grape as they do in its homeland of Beaujolais, by way of the unique ‘maceration cabonique’ method, with delicious results.
- The 2020 Estate Vineyards Gamay Noir is a vibrant cheeky character livening up your day with wild cranberries and bananas, before toffee apple complexities start to take over with hints of fine oak, rounded out with light supple tannins.

- The little bro of the iconic Coleraine
- But compared with it's big brother, Awatea is a positive bargin at half the price and is an experience to remember.
- The 2020 vintage gave the Awatea intense powerful characters with a persistance tannin structure to give it life after the recommended cellaring time of 8-10 years. This intense claret experience welcomes you in with concentrated plums, blackcurrants, and blackberries. After which the warm reception extends into fine tannins with characters of chocolate, baked cedar, a savoury liquorice.
- Case of 6 ($44.90/bottle)

- Te Mata's legendary claret - Coleraine
- Coleraine has forged itself as one of NZ's top drops for almost 30yrs. A powerful Bordeaux blend lead by Cabernet Sauvignon
- The 2018 Coleraine is one for the record books much like the 2013, 2008 or even the 1998 of last century and is one of the most hotly anticipated reds in NZ. The 2019 as Sam Kim phrases it is 'Designed for life' . With a drinking period between 2030 till 2040, it's all about can you resist popping the cork for a decade. Especially with ratings like 100/100 & 98/100 along with Bob Campbell saying 'its one of the best Coleraine's he has ever tasted. Not a bad accolade considering the stunners that have worn the Coleraine name!
